In preparation for my upcoming trip, I’ve migrated my entire site over to WordPress MU.  This seemed to be the best solution, since this section was developing into its own blog and some feature required it to be on a separate WordPress installation from my main site.  Although the process as not as easy as I expected, everything was migrated and put in place.  For those of you who are curious, I ended up exporting my posts in XML using the built in WordPress feature instead of moving the MySQL tables over.  This proved an easy solution, however if your site is larger with more content, I would recommend another solution involving moving your MySQL tables over.  This new section for my blog includes a revised theme, along with a bunch of other blog features such as Flickr integration.  I also enabled comments on this post, after activating my Akismet plugin.

With less then a month until I leave, I’ve nearly completed all the necessary reservations.  I was even able to snag first class on the flight over, although this came at a price since I now have two layovers.  Hopefully before I leave I’ll get some time to add an image gallery and some other features.
